CelebritiesRe: Jayce Jeremi, Linda Ikeji’s Son, Cute In New Photos by OdiaI(f): 6:05pm On Feb 07, 2019
dasparrow:
I have a feeling Linda Ikeji will spoil this son of her's rotten and he will end up being like all those useless only son grown Nigerian bred men that will end up being terrible fathers to their kids and terrible husbands to their wife and an overall nuisance to society. Just saying....

Jayce is a cute baby though.
You probably only know Linda on Nairaland. If you follow her well, you will know that one thing still endears her to the hearts of a lot of people despite any negative news surrounding her and that thing is Family Values - Love and respect for family. She even publicly frowns at cases that involves not showing respect to people no matter what. From how she respects her father and seeks his permission before doing anything, does she look like someone who won't pass those same good nurturing her parents passed unto her to her child?

With how closely knitted her family is, does she cut across to you like someone who will raise an irresponsible child? Wish her luck and let it end there.
CrimeRe: Man Shot Dead By Armed Robbers After Wife Flaunted Cash On Facebook. Photos by OdiaI(f): 11:48pm On Feb 06, 2019
In as much as I empathize with the family of the deceased, I beg to opine that his murder may be very unconnected to the flaunting of cash. It may just be a coincidence.

While typing this, something else struck me, what if he was owing someone and kept posting the person on the grounds that he has no money, the the person saw the wife's post and arranged for him to be murdered?

Or

What if someone asked him for money favours and he told the person he didn't have money, then the wife's post irked the person?

In spite of these assumptions though, his death may be very unconnected to the money his wife posted on SM. That the sister of the deceased said it doesn't make it the fact. It is obvious they haven't been best of in-laws.

May the man's soul rest in perfect peace.

How come she is this young at fifty and Celine dion is this old?
Celine is 50? I didn't know. But then, Celine lost her husband after a long illness...the STRESS of the cancer and that of his death is enough to make her age thrice...there lies the difference.

Oju Anu??
Something u cannot tell ur own brother or son to do...he didn't want to take her with him b4, it's if the baby is his own that he would not want to leave her here alone pregnant..I'm not understanding the oju Anu part u are now asking for, so he should shaa take her even if the baby is not his??
Which account should he write that one if it's another man's child......., bad loan and irrecoverables account??
The unborn child is obviously his...Dude can't just make up his mind.
RomanceRe: Could I Be Responsible For The Pregnancy? by OdiaI(f):
So if she is truly pregnant for someone else as you think, you want total strangers to decide your future for you?
You will hurt her pride if you start doubting her now. It is better you sit her down if at all and tell her your worries, threatening her with a DNA won't solve anything.
If she insists the pregnancy is yours, since you already had plans of taking her with you, go ahead.

On marrying her before or after the birth of the child, you are a man, the decision is yours to make.

CrimeRe: Man Whose Son Has Days To Live In Rivers State Absconds After N70m Was Raised by OdiaI(f):
martineverest:
reminds me of toyin Aimaku Abdullahi the lady with cancer...toyin and the lady's family knew the lady had few days to live,they asked Nigerians to raise 10m and naija raised whooping sum of 100m.the lady died days later and toyin and her family started fighting over the money until olive intervened.



i hope bloggers aren't carrying fake news
Stop it! Mayowa was still very much alive when Toyin 'Aimakhu' got wind of her family's plan. They cut Toyin off despite helping them to raise the funds. This was what made her call them out. She raised alarm about it before the lady of blessed memory passed on.

FamilyRe: 15-Year-Old Chinwe Married To Older Man Has Been Returned To Her Parents (Pics) by OdiaI(f): 1:24pm On Feb 03, 2019
I scanned through the comments on the front page and it is funny not a single person mentioned that she should go back to School. At this stage, she still needs more education. Her parents probably married her off because of the burden of her baby but did they also think about how she will be able to take care of a special needs man and also take care of her baby at such a tender age?

Who even impregnated her? Why wasn't that mentioned? It is good she would be handed over to the government, she is still too young to bear the burden of marriage coupled with having a little baby to cater for.

The man isn't an old man as the initial story claimed. His medical condition made him appear old...
BusinessRe: If You're Not Ready For Heartbreaks, Never Start Up A Business by OdiaI(f): 7:06pm On Jan 31, 2019

Wonderful thread. Spent over 4m to set up my supermarket business about two years ago. Till today, am still battling for stability. It's been one loss after another. Now am heartbroken because of expired goods totalling about 200k. Even people owing me don run comot
Did you have the experience before setting up a supermarket? Guess what? People actually learn 'provision' - this is how they call it. Like, you will actually pay someone to learn in their shop/outfit how to sell 'provisions'.

On the outside, it looks easy but until you put in your legs, you won't know that there are some trade secrets only people in the know are exposed to.

The advice I was given constantly when my business kept failing is this: re-strategize. So I will advice you do same. Do a lot of research, this also has helped me in a whole lot of ways. God help you!

I have a very funny and annoying case I'm dealing with right about now.

A company contacted me to design calendars for 2019 for them. After 2weeks of designing and countless tweaking plus product photo sessions, it got to the print stage and I suddenly the company said they can't pay the amount I requested for the print job.

I said OK fine, this is the soft copy of the job, get a printer to do the printing for less than what I offered, they went ahead and printed elsewhere even though the manager later confirmed they paid more for the printing compared with what I offered.

Now, the issue is this, I need my money for my intellectual property and time put into the design for calendar that they have already shared to their customers. To my greatest shock, I was told I won't be paid a dime.

What is their reason for not paying me? That I wasn't the one that printed the job, hence I won't be paid for the design. Like wtf are they talking about.

I'm already getting legal advice on how to recover my money from them.

Starting up a business ain't child's play people. Perseverance will surely pay in the long run. Stay focused, don't give up.
They are wrong for not paying you. But I suggest you apply caution in the matter. I hate when things turn out this way. I hope you get your payment from them.

Poor baby! cry
what if he was fatter than that before the child came? Did you know him prior? If it has been verified that the child is actually his, why bother about how the father looks? Isn't it obvious that the child is very sick and dying? The child, not the father is the one who is sick.

so uncalled for! Like for real, I hope you felt extra good after typing this? Haven't you heard of couples who get married and wait for 2 - 5 years after, ON PURPOSE, before welcoming their first child?

There are different reasons why people wait - Education, a demanding Job, relocation, money etc...Be guided on how you insult someone over the fruit of the womb because whether you have children or not, anything can happen o. Life is this spiritual.
FamilyRe: Lady Narrates How Lazy Her Father Is, Collects Monthly Allowance From Wife by OdiaI(f): 4:14pm On Jan 26, 2019
faithfull18:
Hmmn, it is common place in most Nigerian families too but on Nairaland the men are always providing, while the women are leeches when we all know in reality, reverse is the case.
You are actually correct to an extent. Until I started living in Mushin, I didn't believe there were actually husbands who rely on their wives 100% for the upkeep of the home financially.

I see a lot of this in Mushin. Personally, I have nothing against it but as someone who studies issues like this thoroughly, I have come to realize that it is influenced more by nurture as a result of the environment. Some men would rather hang around drinking early in the morning instead of going to do petty jobs pending the time that they get more meaningful jobs while the women who are saddled with the responsibility of taking care of the kids have no other option than to work extra and hard.

Like I wrote above, this is greatly influenced by the environment. You will hardly see such in other environment.

There is nothing wrong if the man can not genuinely fend for the family due to circumstances beyond his control but it is wrong if he just lazes around without giving a push.

What kinda doctor was that? How come they didn't detect it huh
The same week for the embryo transfer was the same week she conceived naturally so it wouldn't have been possible to detect any pregnancy. At just the first week of pregnancy, pregnancy tests will still come out negative. They know it happened same week because the babies arrived same time.

Is sand that scarce in their country?

I am already thinking of starting a sand exportation business to Cameroon.
Lol...there are different types of sand. This particular type is found inside rivers. They do it in Nigeria too. I am very sure of this. In Ogun river, that flows past a part close to Lagos, you will find Hausa men doing this business. Like, it is a normal business for them. Anywhere you see tippers close to a river, observe them more, they are going to get this type of sand from the men that sell them.
CelebritiesRe: Linda Ikeji Bags Another Honorary Doctorate Degree In Dubai by OdiaI(f): 10:40am On Jan 19, 2019
NoGender:
These days they've just reduced a PhD to mean less. I remember the days of my father when you had to school and school and read to have a master's degree, PhD meant you were a very notable academic.

But whats its worth today? Even Patience Jonathan has a PhD.
They have been awarding Honorary Doctorate since the days of your father. There is a difference in Honorary doctorate degree - which is what she is to be awarded here - and Doctor of Philosophy degree, which is Ph.D...

Honorary doctorate degree is conferred on anyone worthy of it just the same way chieftaincy title is conferred on whoever deserves it as per the person's contribution to the society.

She has made a remarkable contribution to the society through something if you ask me and that is through Blogging. It won't be out of place too to award Seun this same honorarium if he accepts because he has also contributed remarkably to online information management. It depends on your field. There is nothing wrong in awarding her the honorarium. She has put in the work.

I met a beautiful, nice, tall girl. I immediately got along well with her. Introduced he to everybody around me. When my cousin came back from Lag, we made a bet that within two days he would Bleep her. I was confident cos she was one in a million for me, In fact I believed I ve found a woman for me. The next day my cousin came back with audio of hot sex whereafter she was telling him not to let me know cos she love me and would not like to lose me. When I asked him how he managed to conviced her, he ridiculed me by whispering 10000 naira only. That was how I lost a bet of 15k. The next day she came and attempted to pull her wears in front of me, I went to d bathroom and vomitted and that was how I knew it was over.

Marriage in Nigeria is a scam, all of them are all prostitutes
The fact that you even made a bet speaks volumes about who you are. You ain't better than the lady after all. How can you make a bet on your girlfriend, it doesn't just sound right to the ears neither does it look good reading it.

You set her up. Let us go spiritual on this since we are Nigerians and can relate more, if you were the devil, won't you make sure she falls for the temptation so you retain your glory as the devil? You exposed her to it and eventually ridiculed yourself, not her.

Imagine your defense? Grown men protect their girlfriends not expose them to nonsense. Please, work on yourself, respect women more!

RomanceRe: "She Did Traditional Marriage Last Week, Got Scholarship To US This Week" by OdiaI(f): 4:46pm On Jan 13, 2019
Marriage is about sacrifice and compromise most times. Keep white wedding aside, by the laws of the land, she is legally married.

Now, she is married to her husband, not her ex. If the husband doesn't want her to go and she goes, it may bring up issues later on. Moreover, if the Poland is sure, why not be patient with her husband for them to go there later. A marriage of one week old is a very young one, does she want to just end it without giving it proper thought?

If she feels taking the scholarship is best for her, let her sit with her husband and see if they can work up a plan that will benefit the marriage.

Whatever decision she takes, she should put her marriage into consideration. She is very married, put aside white wedding talks. Traditional marriage is not engagement party.

Hi, you probably uploaded just one of your three BN forms. Scan them into one batch, the BN forms that is and upload them. Also, make sure to upload the payment receipt you downloaded from your page on their site. Those are the two documents that bring problems most times.

Or they are probably caught in the festive season, give them some time, that is if you are sure you uploaded the right documents.

Good day Niaralanders, I recently discovered this painful growth at the back of my neck. Please what could it be and is there any treatment for it?.
Pic attached below
With all the suggestions of rub this and that, whose advice will you go with now?
To avoid this confusion, just go to the hospital. You have an infection obviously but go to the hospital so you can get sensible treatment...Don't scratch it so you don't spread it. When you go to the hospital, the doctor will direct you on the necessary test to run and treat you accordingly or you may not even need any test if your history is well taken and understood especially as you revealed you had a hair cut recently... Good luck...
